Technology helping pastors stay in touch

During a Thursday morning breakfast with the four pastors whom I meet weeklywith, we were talking about us going home. How are we going to keep intouch? EMAIL! The problem is that they have no email, no computer, and noway for the wonderful ways of technology to help us stay in touch. Hmm...What to do? I know, get them an email and teach them how to use it. So,last Thursday, instead of breakfast at our house, we went to Manda Hill tothe Bread Café to get donuts and then go to the Internet Café right nextdoor for internet. The problem was the donuts weren't ready for 30 minutesand the internet was down. Hmm... We tried Post Net. Down, too. Went toVasilis! Score! Got donuts and pastries. And then mosied down to Zamtelwhere we went online to help the pastors navigate their email worlds. Ibrought Kamryn to help me and help she did. Hard to help all three pastorsat the same time:) It was a good time. They now have emails, growingknowledge of how to email and with the help of the internet cafes, theability to now stay in touch. The big world is getting smaller all the time!
